We need to make the contact_us form less idiomatic to trick spammers. The default implementation gets lots of form spam.

I'm trying some things on a fork (send 200 on errors, honeypot fields, layout tricks), but if anyone has experience here feel free to take a run at this. I'm new to this wonderful world.

I implemented this on another site. Ends up the spammers will just sit there and fill out the form anyways. No point in building this in.
